Don't Experiment

You cannot afford to waste time
in experimenting when your lungs
are in danger. Consumption always
seems at first only cold. Do not
permit any dealer to impose upon
you with some cheap imitation of
DR.. Kings New Discovery for Con
sumption, Coughs and Colds, but be
sure you get the genuine. Because
he can't make more profit he may
tell YOU he has something just as
good, or just the same. Don't be
deceived, but insist upon getting DR..
Kings New Discovery, which is
guaranteed to give relief in all
Throat, Lung aud Chest affections.

An old newspaper man of Toledo met
friend at one of the hotels the other
day, who he had not seen since the be-
ginning of the war. Our Toledo mans
friend was physician and when asked
where he had been for so ma ny years,
replied that he had been living at Rlo de
Janeiro, the capital of b azil. Said the
doctor, ~ had most singular ana trag-
zeal experience during my twenty-five
wears OF residence there. j had friend
who was convicted of capital offence.
He sent for me and begged that would
intercede In his behalf with the Emper-
or Dom Pedro. / did my best, but the
strongest appeal could make to the En-
peror was unavailing. 1t was decreed
that nv friend must be beheaded at day
light on certain morning with COM
mon maiefactor. The gulllotlne was
wide enough to permit both to be be-
headed at single blow of the knife. L
had heard of a plant from which decoc-
ton could be made that would not only
stop the flow of blood instantly, but that
would cause the tissue TO unite and heal
with miraculous quiJkness. After great
effort discovered person who had the
secret of this plant, and by Offering MN
a large sum induced him to aid me in
nv plan, which to attempt the restora-
ton to life of my unfortunate friend.
He prepared the decoction and on the
morning of the execution we were both
present and ready to make the expert
ment the moment the knife fell. The
heads of both men fell into the basket
prepared to receive them. l caught up
the head of my friend, applied the pow
erful decoction Immediately to the sew
cred neck, while the other man did the
same to the severed trunk. The head
and trunk were put together almost IN
an instant, and the body turned over to
us and carted away to house close by.
The adhesion Of the head and trunk was
nearly perfect, and there had been COM
paratively little loss of blood. Restora-
lives were freely used and in half an
hour my patient sat up and asked for
gla s of wine. When the wine was
handed him he went into violent fit OF
sneeziug. These paroXysms continued
so long that | began to feel that that the
adhesion of the head to the body would
be broken, and that my great expert
ment would fail after all, when my as
sistant suggested that he had bottle OF
Halls Catarrh Cure in the room. This
was immediately given the patient, ana
in half an hour he sat up and carried on
cheerful conversation with us. when
nv friend had fully recovered from the
shock of decapitation, he discovered that
we had made a mistake and attached the
head of the other man to his body. Inc
other man had been afflicted Tor years
with Catarrh.

Saved His Life.

Mr.. ID. |. WilcoXson, of Horse
Cave, Ky, says BE was, for many
years, badly afflicted with Phthisic,
also Diabetes; the pains were almost
uncomfortable and would sometimes
almost throw him into commissions.
He tried Electric Bitters and got re-
lief from first bottle and after taking
six bottles, was entirely cured, and
had gained in flesh eighteen pounds.
Says he positively believes he would
have died, habit not been for the
relief afforded by Electric Bitters.

errs. There is deeply rooted pref
udice against these birds, but this
antipathy is as unreasonable as the
sentiment in favor of the robin.
They both perform the task allotted
to them in the economy of Nature,
under the dispensation OF an all
wise Creator,-no more and no less
and naughty, self-sufficient man
who assumes to be their tyrant
might we'll profit by their example,
if his arrogance would permit. 1t
is certain that the sable Ishmaelites
of the air infict some loss on the
farmer, but, as everything was Gre
ated tor good purpose, we are con-
fident that they return compensa-
ton in some fashion. We would
give something considerable to un-
derstand the crow-language and
hear from those jolly free-booters
what they think of the poor serfs
that toll through the long spring
and summer days cultivating the
golden corn to be bounced upon un-
tremendously by the winged rovers,
as soon as the harvest is ripe. How
they pity, no doubt, their would be
masters when they see them paying
three cents a mile for Rail Road
transportation, at the iminent risk
of being crushed in collision, when
the despised crow can take wing and
sail more speedily through the pure
emphyrean to any destination, with
out cost or danger to life, limb or
baggage. With what contempt do
they regard the silly dude who at
feet the black hair which Nature de-
MED to him and resorts to- the opoth-
ecary's foul mixtures to attain his
object, when their plumage fairly
glistens with an intensity of the
much coveted hue. Then, again {:
naturalists are agreed that in the
matter oflongevity, these birds have
by far the advantage of their hui
man despots, for they are century
living" while our years are limited
to three scores and ten. We have
no disposition to dispute mans ST.
PERIoRITY to other created things
here below, but we fear that he ex-
aggerates his privileges in dealing
with inferior animals and, moreover,
to take q wider range-we find it
hard to believe that benehcient
Providence would condemn the
dumb but cutely feeling brute to
painful and unrequieted pilgrimage
and q totally uncompensated servi-
tude on this earth. The Entutored,
natural theology of the Indian has
a Heaven for the faithful dog as
we'll as for the bold hunter, and
without meaning to institute a COM
parison between Solomon and us, we
think it is plain that even HE had
some such thoughts as ours when he
said, GAIL go unto one place; all are
of dust and all turn to dust again.
Who knoweth the spirit of man that
goeth upward and the spirit Of the
beast that goeth downward to the
earth ?"
There, now, we have put our foot
into it with vengeance. We have
been, all along, trying to steer be-
tween the Scylla and Charybdis of
politics and with our eyes open, we
sail straight into the still worse
danger of offending the theologians,
but if we could gain little merci-
full consideration for the creatures
that can not use tongue or pen to
proclaim their wrongs, we could
stand great deal ofpunishment.

On Thursday of last week the fast
express on the Chesapeake & Ohio
railroad, six coaches, going West,
met with an accident about u miles
from Charleston, this State, in
which the passengers were more or
less injured. None were killed but
several seriously injured. The ac-
cident was caused by q defective
switch. over which the engine, bag
gage, express and mail cars passed
unframed, but the three middle
coaches, all we'll filled with passen-
GERS. were thrown from the track,
two of which were turned complete
lv over, one turning twice.
No blame is attached to the EN-
ployes, and the company is doing all
in its power to care for the injured,
many of whom were able to continue
their journey. Those who are worse
hurt are at st. Adams, but a few
hundred yards from the accident.

Dear Sirs: About three months ago,
roticing a letter addressed to you in
the Bee from Gen. Slev:n, in refer
ence to the cure of his son by the
use of Halls Catarrh Cure, we were
induced to commence the use of it
for our daughter Nellie now fourteen
years old, who has been suffering
form catarrh for about eight years,
during which time she has been trea-
ted by one of the best physicians in
the city. We have also tried the use
of almost all the known remedies
for catarrh, with no more success
than temporary relief. Many nights
have we laid awake to hold her
mouth open to keep her from strang-
ling. Her hearing had also become
affected. We were afraid that she
would never recover. We have now
used six bottles of Halls Catarrn
Cure and we believe Nellie to be en-
tirely cured. In few days after
commencing the use Of it we noticed
a decided change for the better, and
from that right along she has i'm
proved, until now she breathes as
easily as any one. She sleeps well
and her hearing is perfectly good.
We feel that the disease is entirely
removed. We write this unsolicited
letter, feeling that it is due you, and
with the hope that others may be
benefited in like manner. We can
hardly realize that such change
could be effected in so short a time
after battling with the disease so
long. We are still using the RENE
DIV at intervals, as it seems to build
up her system. You are at liberty
to use this in any manner you see
proper. We are yours, truly,
Mr.. and Mrs. S. BALDWIN,
220 Franklin Avenue.
